英文摘要 |
The objectives of this study were to understand the pattern of fruit development, changes in carbohydrates and a -amylase activity of'Chiin Hwang'mango. Fruit length, fresh weight, specific gravity and firmness, starch, total soluble sugar, a -amylase activity of every pulp parts were regularly investigated from 40 days to 152 days after anthesis. Results indicated that fruit growth curve as represented by fruit length, fresh weight and fruit volume are sigmoid. The specific gravity of fruits increased during maturation(82-I 52 days after anthesis). Firmness of fruits began to decline I 09 days after an thesis with median and distal inner portions of mesocarp showed most changes. Starch content fast accumulated between days 68 to 96, and inner mesocarp had higher rate than the outer part. Total soluble carbohydrate decreased from days 68 to 96. While a -amyl邸e activity increased gradually until day 109 with the lowest activity found in median and distal inner mesocarp. |
